Finished "The Golden Compass", and it was awesome. I must get my hands on the second 2. Then I started "The Wish List" by Eoin Colfer, but couldn't really get into it. I do plan to get back to it someday. Now I've picked up where I left off in "Watership Down", but may have to put it on hold if I get "New Moon" by Stehanie Meyer Consdering how much I loved "Twilight" by her, I'm hoping her second one is just as great.

"The Tea Rose" by Jennifer Donnelly. Set in East London in 1888. So far, I LOVE it.

I'm gonna start reading 'The Scarlet Letter' by Nathaniel Hawthorne. I've heard good things, so I hope it's good.

'Morrigan's Cross" by Nora Roberts! My favorite by her to date. I only have 2 chapters left! I hope my book club ships the next installment to me soon!

I saw this post , Lily and wonder if you would like this one: "A Catch of Consequence" by Diane Norman. It is set in Australia, but then England. I really enjoyed it.

I just reading my third Fyodor Dostoevsky book, _The Brother's Karamazov_. Absolutely the best of the three. Very dark novels, with only a hint of light. I'm still in the dark from reading him!

I'm reading 'The Alchemist' by Paulo Coelho. It's quick and a good story so far.

Dragonkin, I've read all the Honor Harrington books. Excellent reading.
Proloz, I also just finished Morrigan's Cross. Can't wait for the next two! I adore Nora Roberts.
I've recently finished "The Expected One" by Kathleen McGowan. Another twist on the Jesus and Mary were married and had kids theme.

At the moment I am reading 'The Street Lawyer' by John Grisham. Very nice book although with my workload I can't imagine when I'll be able to pick it up next. I just love the way John Grisham's main characters think - it's so comical sometimes. But overall he is a good writer. My favourite John Grisham book is 'The Last Juror'. I am also reading Jane Austen's 'Emma' in between. Haven't gotten far enough to describe it. But it has quite an auspicious start!

I've been gone so long! Well, since my last post, I did take a break from "Watership Down", but that came due to the sudden urge to read the 6th HP book, and then the decision to re-read the other 5. Well then after that I finally got "New Moon", and it was better than I thought. If you've read it, (which I recommend you should) then you'll understand my new avatar. Well, I finished that in about a week, and started "The Subtle Knife", sequel to "The Golden Comapss". Then I will read "The Amber Spyglass", the third in that series. After that, who know?

I only just found out that the latest Discworld books, Wintersmith, is out, so I'm already buried in it.

I am reading some Boris Johnson at present, just finished Seventy-two Virgins and am reading one of his other books at present, a series of articles which were previously published in his newspaper column.
